We recently polled parents about whether or not they'd like us to open additional hours and found that most folks wanted an extra day. So we added a Saturday shift from 10 AM until 1:30 PM! We also added 30 minutes to the end of all our other sh...

We have had a great experience for our daughter over the past 2 years. She loves the teachers and has benefitted greatly from attending. Although she is not struggling in math and is currently in an advanced math setting in high school, she continues to attend as it helps her to stay on top of her challenging curriculum. She is able to brush up on math skills as well as receive help with homework and advanced math concepts. We have been very happy with the owner and staff who are very responsive and committed.

My child was having difficulties in 9th grade algebra right at the start of the school year last year. We started Mathnasium about 5 weeks after the start of her math class when we saw she was failing. Fast forward to today at the start of 10th grade and she is averaging B+ in algebra, I contribute this directly to Mathnasium. We continue to be enrolled in the program and she actually looks forward to her sessions, the instructors are great. We love Mathnasium!

We saw the positive results the Mathnasium program had on our daughters math skills with a boost in my daughters confidence and a big improvement in her map test scores after several months with Mathnasium.

Mathnasium is fantastic. They don’t just get your child through the current year’s math, they teach a foundation of math that you can build on in any grade. I have seen such a change in my daughter’s general attitude toward math and her ability too.

We could not be more pleased with Mathnasium's approach. Their initial assessment confirmed what we already knew about our son's challenges with math. However, the personalized learning plan showed us and, more importantly, him how we would address them. We're seeing slow, but consistent improvement after each session. He no longer has anxiety because he knows what areas he needs help in and how he's going to achieve success.

MATHNASIUM is the BEST! Truly it has boosted my daughter's self-confidence regarding her math skills. Their curriculum is fantastic and the ability to focus on burnishing weak areas, allowing them assistance with homework as needed, and helping them get ahead of the learning has been utterly invaluable. As a parent, I probably drink less wine thanks to Mathnasium.

My daughter fell behind in math during fourth and fifth grade (as many girls do for all sorts of reasons that have nothing to do with their abilities). She was frustrated to move out of the gifted math class in middle school. During the summer before her second year of middle school we spoke with an instructor who said he did not think it likely she could catch up but he would give her the chance. She started Mathnasium and went about 15-20 hours a month. The next year, she talked her way into the advanced class and skipped two grade levels, finishing that year as the highest ranked student in her grade. She is in AP Calculus as a Junior and will take AP Statistics and AP Economics and AP Physics as a Senior because she is sure she can do it.
We credit the program and the instruction at Mathnasium for helping her gain the confidence and the competence needed to achieve her goals.

She loves it excited to go and learning a lot. She was started on below grade level but has succeeded in all of that and is confident. We come 3 times weekly. The incentives are great.
Thank you. So much for helping both of us as homework time was very frustrating to both of us. She has had tutoring at school and private tutors for 3 years but I feel like she has learned so much more in the past month.
She’s confident, motivated and excited to go! Thank you so much😉

3 of my 4 kids are enrolled at Mathnasium of Decatur. We are so pleased with the support our kids receive. All 3 have different needs - one is pure enrichment, completing math topics a full grade level above his current grade level; one needs additional support at his current grade level; and one is a combination support of content she hasn't fully mastered plus enrichment for areas where she can handle/needs additional enrichment.
Every instructor at Mathnasium of Decatur is super supportive and very positive with the kids. When my kids don't understand a concept, they try different ways to explain the topic until they find one which registers with my kid. They provide instant feedback to the kids and also write up a quick summary of the session which is shared via a Google Doc, so we (parents) can see what the kids worked on each session and understand where they excelled and where they struggled.
Center Director, Matthew & Center Owner, Sam are both wonderful & work very hard to ensure every student gets the support they need. I've met/talked with both multiple times over the years for additional feedback about my kids. Everyone is very accommodating and truly just want to instill a love and understanding of math in all kids. We highly, highly recommend Mathnasium of Decatur.

My Grandson is doing great in school this year as a result of the time spent at Mathnasium this summer. His confidence is up 100% and he looks forward to Math class. Thanks to all the wonderful Instructors this Summer for all your patience and care. I tell everyone I know about this program, as a matter of fact I was referred to you by a co-worker and for that I'm forever grateful. Thanks Everyone.

I am pleased with the quality of service my daughter received from Mathnasium this summer. The tutors are professional, knowledgeable and patient. They really helped her figure out how to do different things. She has enjoyed her time going there and is looking forward to coming again in the future if needed.
Thank you, Mathnasium of Decatur, GA!

Calm, supportive environment and warm staff provide the ideal space for learning. Lessons are individualized so that the pacing is just right and demands don’t overwhelm but sufficiently challenge each child.
My daughter loves math and Mathnasium is a great resource to help keep her confidence up. I like that there are plenty of female math tutors to serve as role models too!

My son typically LOVES math. But somewhere toward the end of 4th grade, he became less interested. I signed him up for Summer camp at Mathnasium Decatur to help him with challenges and to boost his confidence. The instructors do a great job with the kids! My son was engaged in the work and would update me in the afternoons at pickup (a rare thing for this 10 year old boy.. lol). He also loved the math games at the end of each day. The owner, Sam Younis was also a great point of contact and responded to all of my questions in a timely manner. Thanks Mathnasium!!

We just started visiting Mathnasium with our 8 year old, rising third grader. We've had a great experience so far and can tell a difference in our daughter's approach to math. She enjoys coming to Mathnasium and we're planning on continuing through the school year.

My daughter thrived at Mathnasium! She never complained about going and genuinely enjoyed the tutors and now enjoys and understands math! She went from failing her Math Milestone assessments to exceeding them in less than a year of sessions. It is money well spent. The owner, director, and tutors are all amazing. I highly recommend Mathnasium!!!

It was a great experience. My kids learnt how to think critically and then,get to the solutions. The instructors are excellent, very patient and very knowledgeable and above all had a very friendly learning environment.

The staff are friendly and accommodating. She really responds to their feedback and she has gained a bit more confidence with her math facts.
We also appreciate Matthew and Sam's flexibility with how to pay for sessions that work with her summer schedule -- my daughter is only in town for part of the summer and not here for a full calendar month. So they let us pay for 1 month, but allowed us to schedule her sessions between the 2 months for when she is in town.

Mathnasium has helped both of our children build their math skill. And, they really enjoy going, which is great....we were afraid they would dread it. Instead, they look forward to earning more cards and seeing the different prizes available. It is a good motivator!

We are very pleased with Mathnasium! Our son has gained tremendous proficiency and confidence in his math skills. He went from being a struggling math student to an "A" student after joining Mathnasium. Mathnasium is well worth the investment!
We also really appreciate the flexibility in scheduling options. Mathnasium's hours and scheduling system are perfect for busy families.

Zoe is 8 months in and on track for a solid A+ in math this semester! She loves coming to this center, never wanting to skip a session. Even though one opened closer to our house, she loves the instructors here, so we are staying put. She enjoys math now, and is no longer behind her grade level. Very impressed with Mathnasium of Decatur!

My daughter had major math anxiety but also didn't want to talk to her teacher about what she didn't understand. Mathnasium is a 'safe place' for her to ask her questions! It doesn't matter who she is paired with, she always enjoys her time working on her problem sets from school or the work in her binder. After our first visit, she didn't want to leave when her hour was up. I love the flexibility of scheduling and the laid back atmosphere. I know my kid is getting what she needs and she is excited to DO MATH which is insane to think about considering all the resistance we experienced from her around this subject. We sing your praises to everyone who asks about math tutoring for their kids. Thank you so much!

I'm always happy to leave a review and promote Mathnasium based on results and the amazing service we receive. My daughter looks forward to coming every week because she knows that the tutors at Mathnasium will explain, in a way she can understand, anything she didn't "get" from the teacher that week. Oh, how I wish I'd had Mathnasium when I was in high school! When I come in to pick up my daughter, I'm always greeted warmly and I'm made to feel welcome. For as many students are there it's surprisingly quiet as each student is highly engaged. I especially love how independent the students are, checking in and out without prompting or prodding. So, the results? My daughter is thriving in higher level math courses and even enjoys math (a little)! I think what she enjoys is the confidence she never had before coming. I've noticed her confidence and grades improve across different subjects even as her courses have increased in difficulty and intensity. Nice bonus for her! Finally, I'll mention the investment...it's more affordable (even for a single mom of 2) than a private tutor and the flexibility of scheduling is a must for our challenging schedule. I love that Mathnasium offers different packages to fit each students' needs. Thank you Sam, Matthew, and all the tutors at Decatur Mathnasium!

My daughter had 16 sessions at Mathnasium this summer. She has improved with her math skills.. we live in Mobile, AL and do not have Mathnasium here... I would certainly sign her up if it was available here..the instructors seem to be genuinely concerned and helpful... my daughter enjoyed going to her sessions..she recently had her 1st math test in school and scored 88/100.. a lot of math skills that she had on her test is material that was covered at Mathnasium..I would highly recommend Mathnasium and would love to see a center in Mobile,AL

I love Mathnasium Decatur. The staff is friendly, flexible, and knowledgeable. The environment is clean and orderly in a way that promotes learning, which meshes with the precision of learning math. Way to go Mathnasium Decatur Team!

My daughter enjoyed interacting with college kids. It made Math not so intimidating!! She used the strategies in class and her teachers noticed her attitude had changed. It was a great experience for us!!

My son has definitely become more confident in his math abilities since attending Mathnasium. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. My only reservation is that the sessions do not follow what each child is doing in school (which is what my son has trouble with at times). As a result, doing well in Mathnasium does not necessarily translate in success in the classroom.

We love the program and love how flexible we can go on hold when kids activities start to drown us. This has allowed us to cont over the years!!! Sam is very fair in giving us credit for months we don't attend and I'd recommend (and have) the program to anyone looking for a tune up or help!!
